Sniff (A.K.A., A Moment Worthy of Tears)

When Kristin sees or experiences an emotional moment of some sort she often times turns to me and simply says, "Sniff."

Well, I recently had one of th0se sniff moments. Chase and I were sitting on the couch in our bedroom while Kristin and the girls were doing some girlie things in the bathroom. He reached over and gave me a big, unannounced hug. I looked at him and said, "Why'd you give me a hug?" Without even a moment of hesitation, he replied, "Because you're my best friend." Then, he gave me a kiss.

Sniff.

Moments later, as I was thinking about Chase's heartfelt expression, Sammie came around the corner and said something like, "How do I look, Dad?" I'm not kidding. She looked 16 with eye shadow, blush and lip stick ... all self-applied, I might add.

Double sniff.
